I've done as requested and attached the troubleshooting file. Thanks ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trigger-assignment-rule-monitor-disappearing/?ID=a6a192e2-485e-4e25-8df5-edd4655798e3#4 Thu, 30 Jun 2022 18:36:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trigger-assignment-rule-monitor-disappearing/?ID=a6a192e2-485e-4e25-8df5-edd4655798e3#4 DisplayFusion Could you send me over a copy of your troubleshooting info while it's working, and another when it's broken?

When you re-connect your monitors, are the monitor ID's getting swapped?

While working initially, frustratingly the monitor ID is regularly disappearing from all of these rules (see attachment). I am not sure why or when but it happened most recently after I disconnect/reconnected to my monitors. Is there a fix/workaround for this? I don't want to have to constantly reinput the monitor ID into these rules! ]]>
